Hello,
I found this Heleomyzidae in a cave in Ardeche. I think it is Eccoptomera. Is it possible to confirm and may be find the species ?
Thank you.

I think I made a mistake. There are setae on mid tibia, it is probably Oecothea. The third article of antenae is not grey. Is it Oecothaea pracox ? Thank you for your help

Oecothaea praecox or at least the genus ? Thanks.

Certainly Oecothea and from the depth of the genae, should be praecox, I think.
